50%Weight 40%Scale 1-5Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
The body is well-sectioned and includes one genuine executable example, but it is undermined by hedged/incorrect auth details, an over-claimed TSDR capability with no backing script, a vague final workflow step, and an orphaned reference file. Validation is absent for a skill that advertises batch operations.
Suggestions
Replace the hedged API-key comment and 'Authentication' section with the actual wiring, e.g. PatentSearchClient(api_key=os.environ['PATENTSVIEW_API_KEY']), matching scripts/patent_search.py.
Add a short PEDS example (client.get_history('12345678')) and either add a TSDR script or drop the TSDR/assignment claims that no bundle file supports.
Link references/api_docs.md from the body (e.g. under 'Query model') and add a validation step to the workflow, such as checking the error dict returned by the clients before feeding results into downstream steps.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Mostly efficient, but 'Key Features' largely duplicates 'When to Use', the 'Authentication' section repeats the code comment, and the 'Networking' bullet ('ensure timeouts/retries are configured ... if running large batches') is filler the clients already handle. Fits anchor 3: could be tightened; not 2 because the padding is confined to a couple of sections. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | The patent-search example is real and executable (verified against scripts/patent_search.py), but the API-key wiring is hedged ('names may vary by implementation') and doesn't match the actual client, which takes an api_key constructor argument rather than reading env vars. PEDS has no usage example (get_history is never shown), and TSDR is claimed under 'Key Features' with no corresponding script in the bundle — key details missing, fitting anchor 3 rather than 4. | 3 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The three-step workflow (Search → History → Status checks) has a clear sequence, but step 3 is vague ('assess maintenance-fee/expiration-related status where available') with no script or command, and there are no validation checkpoints (e.g., checking the {'error': ...} return or rate limits) despite the skill explicitly targeting batch operations — the rubric caps batch-operation workflows without validation at 3. | 3 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The body references the two bundle scripts, but the bundled references/api_docs.md is never mentioned anywhere in the body — a provided reference file that goes unlinked. Inline 'Query model' details also duplicate what belongs in that reference, fitting anchor 3 ('references present but not clearly signaled; content that should be separate is inline') rather than 4. | 3 / 5 |
